A JFFS2 filesystem sync cancels the write buffering dirty work and performs
the flush manually. However, the flag which indicates that the work is active
is not reset. Thus, if a sync happens while the work is pending, the flag
will never be reset resulting in future work never being started. The flag is
now reset under the appropriate lock along with the timer cancellation.
Tested on 3.13.6.
